Rest in Peace
August 22, 2008 on 1:53 pm | In personal, miscellaneous |There was an article in one of the papers today about the death of one of my former clients. She was the first of my clients to pass away (that I know of at least). She was young and she was a severe addict. I once got her out of jail and straight into a detox. The last time I saw her, she remembered me as the lawyer who got her help. She looked healthy. She had a tough life, but she was a genuinely nice person and I’m very sad to hear that she died. I don’t think there were a lot of people who helped her out in her life, so I like to think that I did help her, even a little, even if it didn’t ultimately make a difference.

This is not pertaining to this particular case. I am trying to find out how to get in touch with you~Miss Tyrios, about possibly defending Joseph Druce on a suit against the Boston Herald. I noticed you are interested in the case, by one of your blogs.
It just so happens he is seeking to take them to court for the “video”, that was suppose to exist, that doesn’t, on the re-enactment of murdering Geoghan. If he does not get an attorney to help him, he will have to defend himself.
Please e-mail me if you can help.
Thanks,
Judi
